RenovaCare Comments On Recent Market Activity

New York & Pittsburgh & Berlin – January 8th, 2018 – RenovaCare, Inc. (“RenovaCare” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: RCAR), developer of the SkinGun™ and CellMist™ System for isolating and spraying a patient’s own stem cells onto burns and wounds for rapid self-healing, today announced that on January 3rd, 2018, OTC Markets Group Inc. (“OTC Markets”) informed the Company that OTC Markets had become aware of promotional activities concerning the Company.

OTC Markets provided an example, dated January 2nd, 2018, of the promotional material for reference. It is the Company’s understanding that the material provided was part of an annual predictions report used in part to generate new subscribers for various newsletters owned by StreetAuthority LLC, an independent publisher founded in 2001. The Company had no editorial control over the content and was one of thirteen companies independently selected, researched and mentioned. The annual predictions report was disseminated during the last quarter of 2017. During this time, 2,190,000 shares traded, only 2% more than the average quarterly volume of 2,139,375 shares during all of 2017.

Subsequently, later in the 4th quarter, a material announcement regarding a failed challenge to a RenovaCare patent was made public. On December 20th, 2017, a press release was issued by Avita Medical Limited disclosing that its petition for an Inter Partes Review with the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) to invalidate all claims in U.S. Patent No. 9,610,430 (owned by the Company) was denied. This press release was followed by an article in Stockhead on December 21st, 2017, which more fully reported on the PTAB denying Avita Medical Limited’s petition, and, thereby, upholding the patentability of RenovaCare’s technology.

After the issuance of Avita Medical’s press release and the follow-up article in Stockhead on December 21st, 2017, the trading volume of the Company’s common stock increased 84% to 62,829 shares per day between December 20th and December 29th, versus 32,720 per day previously between December 1st through December 19th, 2017.

The Company is not affiliated in any way with the authors of the annual predictions report or its publisher. The Company issues press releases in the regular course of business and includes in its filings (the “SEC Filings”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) the material business activities of the Company, and investors are encouraged to rely on the information provided directly by the Company in such press releases and SEC Filings.

In the report, the substance of the material statements pertaining to the Company’s technology and products are not materially false or misleading, even though the report has significantly simplified the descriptions of the clinical indications and outcomes related to the use of the Company’s cell spray for the treatment of burns and wounds, and used promotional, advisory and superfluous language in describing the Company, its products and its stock. Moreover, the author comments on the Company’s interaction with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the performance of RenovaCare’s stock. The Company does not know the basis for such opinions or conclusions arrived-at by the author. Investors are reminded to rely upon the Company’s own statements, press releases, and filings with the SEC for information related to these matters.

Following notification from OTCQB Markets, the Company immediately made inquiries of its executive officers, directors, controlling shareholders (i.e., shareholders owning 10% or more of the Company’s securities) and third-party service providers regarding their involvement in the creation or distribution of promotional materials related to the Company and its securities.

To the Company’s knowledge, the Company, its executive officers, directors or, its controlling shareholder, or any third-party service providers have, directly or indirectly:

not been involved in any way (including payment of a third-party) with the creation or distribution of promotional materials, including the annual predictions report, related to the Company and its securities; and

not sold or purchased (other than in than in private placements conducted by the Company as described below) any shares of common stock of the Company within the last 90 days. The Company’s former service provider, Inspiren Media LLC, originally acquired 5,000 shares of the Company on July 25th, 2008 and sold on January 3rd, 2018, after termination of its agreement with the Company. All activity in the Company’s common stock by the Company’s executive officers, directors and controlling shareholders has been disclosed by such officer, director and shareholder in the Company’s SEC Filings.

The Company was not involved in the creation, or directing the dissemination, of the report. Through its investor relations agencies, the Company paid $90,005.25 between October 24th, 2017 and January 2rd, 2018, as part of its contractual agreement to pay for out of pocket costs, including reimbursement of dissemination related costs, incurred by the investor relations agency.

Between the period January 1st, 2017, and November 11th, 2017, the Company retained Ominicor Media LLC to provide public, media and investor relations services. Between the period October 16th, 2017 and December 31st, 2017, the Company retained Inspiren LLC to provide public, media and investor relations agencies. Since January 1st, 2018, Damaak Group LLC has been providing public, media and investor relations services to the Company.

In retaining the services of independent public, media and investor relations agencies, the Company does not have specific expectations of name branding or name recognition outcomes other than general increased awareness of the Company and its products.

The Company, its SkinGun™ and CellMist™ System have been featured in numerous newspapers, magazines, life science and medical publications, television interviews and on various social media platforms. At no time has the Company had any editorial control over the content of any articles, publications, commentary or marketing materials prepared by third parties.

As noted in the Company’s SEC Filings, RenovaCare is a development-stage pre-revenue company; as such, it periodically seeks to complete private placements in order to raise the funds necessary to keep the Company on the road to commercialization of its technologies and products. The private placements conducted by RenovaCare have all involved the issuance of its common stock, or securities convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at prices reflecting a discount to the current market price at the time of closing of the private placement. Each of these transactions has been fully disclosed in the SEC Filings and there have not been any transactions, which have not been disclosed.
